Hi Simon, I have noticed this same thing where the exercise minutes don't match the time you've actually been exercising. It happens mainly with the outdoor walk as you found. My theory on this is that if you don't walk fast enough to get your heart rate up to a certain level the watch doesn't record that as exercise minutes regardless of you activating the workout.
I hope this helps.
