Hitting the temp to cause your gauge to hit H at all is enough no matter how long it stayed there. Obviously though the longer its run at that temp the worse the risk. Im not saying you for sure have a problem, but do your due diligence and have it checked out. If you do have a problem it will save you alot of money dealing with it early on vs letting it get worse and potentially causing more damage. The **** our head gaskets have to deal with is in a whole different league then your average Honda.

Mine did same. Tps hoses. Few others also. Old hoses. I also put in ralliart thermostat and softer sprind on radiator cap to vent back to catch bottle.
I never ran out of fluid and temp didnt come up. If so damage could go much deeper. Head gasket would be one of first issues

Yeah, old hoses tend to leak or be sensitive and burst.

Good luck with your car
