This sounds like a perfect amount of time to run the car to where the battery is charged again. I don't consider this a "short" trip.

I think I killed my battery with the daily trips to Starbucks which is 2 miles away. I'm there, through the drive-thru, back within 10 minutes. I work from home so the car doesn't get much use until the weekends.
