You indeed need to store the values as TimeSpan instances.

But maybe they are given to you as strings. In that case you can convert them to TimeSpan using TimeSpan.Parse(), see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.timespan.parse.aspx

You need to store the values as TimeSpans, so you can perform calculations on them, and only convert to strings for display purposes.
