I was hoping the cloud would hold off to view the ISS pass over.

It was cloudy but I was able to see the ISS as it passed over. I first saw it coming from the northwest and work it way southeast. It was very bright. the further southeast it went it slowly dimmed to where you could not see it at all. It was pretty easy to spot it as it was the fastest object moving in the sky.

The difference between your max time and my max time is 1 minute and 44 seconds. (if I did my math right)
1.73 X 293 mpm (or 300 mpm for ease of calculation) = flight distance of 506 or 519 miles.

Your data in Canon City, CO: Max at 19:33:43, 78º, magnitude -3.8, traveling NW to NE to SE.

My data in Edmond, OK: Max at 20:35:27, 71º, magnitude -3.6, traveling NW to SW to SSE.
