I hour 20 and 80 minutes are same same, so Marathon Man can wear any colour he likes, it shouldn’t make any difference.

Hello, members! It's the first Monday of September, and you know what Mondays mean for us---new riddles!

Here's this week's first:

The marathon man timed himself and found out that if he wore a bright white outfit, he ran 20 km in 80 minutes, but when he wore a dark outfit, he ran 20 km in one hour and twenty minutes. Should he wear a different colour for his next race?

Hmmm... I say he wear whatever he wants as long as he's wearing something! Kidding aside, do you know the answer? If so, tell us below!
It doesn't matter what colour he wears, he ran 20 km both the same times. 1 hour and 20 minutes is the same as 80 minutes.
 
No, because he runs it in the same time when wearing either colour.
