Why? You should only need to do this conversion when you want to display the data.

                       ((Duration%60)<10)
                   THEN
                       CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),Duration/60)+':'+ CASE WHEN CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),Duration%60)<10 THEN +'0'+CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),Duration%60) END
                   ELSE
                       CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),Duration/60)+':'+CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),Duration%60)
