I'll be traveling about 7:00 a.m. from LHR. I don't want to be running. Is 15 minutes enough to connect at Paddington on a weekday morning?
If you are at the front of the HEx train and don't have a queue for a ticket then you'll be on the southbound Circle platform in about 3 minutes (less if you get your skates on). Look at the tfl website for service frequency at the time you are traveling.
