Exactly the same thing happened to me, except 9 miles went to around 16.
Colliers Wood to Tower Hill because Perivale to Tower Hill
Whilst the miles were ok, it was so bloody time consuming I got really sick of it, and the route wasn't particularly nice in the later stages. It also didn't help that by train it took 30 minutes and the tube station is 2 mins walk away
So I got a Brompton, take the train in, ride most of the way back - I miss the old commute tho and am not as fit as I used to be!
Good luck with sticking to it!
