Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hi,

1. If your simulation runs with a fixed time step (= O.dt [1]), it's
easy to compute the number N of DEM timesteps corresponding to 2 hours,
then ask O.run(N,wait=True) [2]

2. If you have no idea about the time step (which "should" not appear, maybe), you may still check O.time [3] and do something like
while O.time < 2hours: # obviously you have to use numbers in correct units (seconds ?), not "2 hours"
    O.run(1000,wait = True)

Jérôme
