If this is the only workout you've got then yes it's a big increase but no it's not that much in total and you will likely get used to it. It's really about the bare minimum amount of exercise you should have been doing already, if you have a desk job. Lots of people roll out of bed and go for a half hour jog with the dog every single morning.

pdf link Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, 2nd edition (health.gov)
  • For substantial health benefts, adults should do at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) to 300 minutes (5 hours) a week of moderate-intensity... aerobic physical activity
  • Adults should also do muscle-strengthening activities of moderate or greater intensity and that involve all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week, as these activities provide additional health benefts.
