I swear to whatever the fuck diety my readers follow that it is pure coincidence that I walked and jogged Pam's Path this morning, which starts the 17th anniversary of Pam the cat's May 5, 2001 birthday. I alternated four-minute walks with one-minute jogs to finish in 56:49, with splits of 14:45, 14:17, 14:06, and 13:41.
This evening, I walked Levy Trail North in 29:54.
By the way, Jo and I feel much better. Jo voluntarily left the front bedroom and I can breathe through my nose for the first time since Wednesday night.
PETE THE GAMBLE GOD'S GET-RICH GOLDEN-BULLET KENTUCKY DERBY SPECIAL
Bet $20 to win on Justify (No. 7), a cold $20 exacta with Justify over Bolt d'Oro (No. 7/No. 11), and a $15 superfecta with Hofburg (No. 9), over Audible (No. 5), over Flameaway (No. 4) and Combatant (No. 20) boxed in the third and fourth positions, for a total wager of $70.
The $20 win bet on Justify should return close to $70. The $20 exacta with Justify over Bolt should return about $450. The superfecta bet (essentially an educated lottery ticket) will return approximately $250,000 if Flameway finishes third and $400,000 if Combatant is third.
Justify should win, fuck the naysayers. Pete believes he has a chance to become a Man 'o War or Secretariat of his era.
Result: Justify won and paid $7.80, or $78.00 for a $20 win ticket. Consequently, my three bets netted $8.00, which is fine. It's nice to come out ahead.
