trotting
Horse's medium pace
Trotting is a gait between walking and running, where legs move in diagonal pairs.
Horses trot; so do people moving at a brisk, bouncy pace.
To go trotting is to move somewhere with purpose but not urgency: She went trotting off to the store.
In harness racing, trotting is the regulated gait that distinguishes trotters from pacers.
