In the Torah
The Torah holds 49,194 sequences of גיח at skips 2–5,000 — about what chance alone gives (about 50,627).
Its smallest skip in the Torah is 2 — the first at Exodus 23:19, reading forward.
Counting every skip from 2 to 152,424, the Torah holds 754,651 sequences of גיח, against about 784,697 from chance alone.
A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 50,627 of it, so a large count is expected.
