12 Mile Run In Iowa

12 miles in the morning on the Cedar Valley Nature Trail, starting at Hiawatha and running north for about 6 miles, then returning. My step brother Bob was doing a bike/run, so I saw him on the way out on his bike, he dropped it off, caught up with me, and ran out to the 5 mile point, then returned. I ran out a bit farther, then headed back. Good run overall, I thought I would slow down once Bob turned around, but I kept a similar pace. Splits of 10:20, 9:42, 9:39, 9:20, 9:12, 9:40, 9:50, 9:33, 9:46, 9:35, 9:27 and 9:39. Overall pace of 9:39, 12 miles in a total of 1:55:48. Very nice out, good comfortable run.
