What 跾 means
Its meaning depends on which Mandarin reading applies.
Mandarin readings of 跾 are written in pinyin as shū and chōu. Say them roughly like “shoo” and “choh”; both use Mandarin’s high, level first tone.
The Shuowen Jiezi, a Chinese character dictionary presented around 121 CE, records 跾 with 足 (“foot”) as its meaning component and 攸 as its sound component. The Kangxi Dictionary also pairs 跾 with 𨁀 as an alternate written form.
Classical and lexicographic; it belongs in discussion of older Chinese texts and dictionaries, not as a general-purpose mark in modern conversation.
Do not read 跾 only as “swift walking”; chōu means a foot ailment.

1Why does 跾 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
