In a marathon race (42.195 km), the winner's time is 2 hours, 18 minutes, and 35 seconds, while the second-place time is 2 hours, 24 minutes, and 49 seconds. Assuming the each runner ran the race at constant speeds, how far (in km) is the second-place finisher behind the first-place finisher as the first-place finisher crosses the finish line?
