My commute is between 1 to 2 hours depending on the day and time and I am only traveling 40 miles. I'd rather take a train for two hours seems certainly doable.

You have to get 45 minutes earlier at the station for passport and luggage control. And you also have to factor the time to go from home to St Pancras, and then from Gare du Nord to your office.

Practically, it's a way longer commute.

My commute is ~1hr and I'm only going around three miles. I could go on at length about the joys of the bus system... ;-)

3 miles? You could easily walk that in an hour, I'd probably walk it in 45 minutes.
