The only forms of normal walking are forward and backward. Walking backwards can sometimes be useful because it evens out the stress on your body. For that reason, for example, it's a good idea to walk the last one or two hundred yards of your walk backwards. Walking may also be categorized by pace. "Brisk" walking is walking at a pace of 4 mph (or more). Race walking, as in the Olympic games, is not normal walking; it looks odd compared to normal walking and it's done at a very brisk pace in competition.
