We recently bought two guinea pigs, probably had them for a couple of months, and it’s been wonderful having the opportunity to get them out into their playpen in the garden . Now the weather is getting colder and the grass is wetter it worries me how long they might have to stay in their hutch. They don’t have a run connected directly to the playpen I’m assuming they should really come out for at least an hour every day ?
How much exercise in a run as much exercise in a run is required?

Around that yes. Could you set up a run for them inside a shed or garage?

I agree. Do you have a shed or unused garage you could set up a run?
When I had outdoor piggies, I would bring them in to the cool kitchen for a run around. We used to have the heating off in there and would open the window if necessary
