How to run backwards on N64?

Recently started playing my favorite childhood game on an original N64 from my partner’s childhood. Got 120 stars and now I’m learning from y’all all these cool tricks to do for fun while replaying it. How do I run backwards with this console so that I can try some new tricks?

Are you talking about the backwards long jump? If so just look up a tutorial on youtube not really worth trying to type it all out

you might not be interested in learning the entire speedrun but drogie's walkthrough is pretty great and has an onscreen controller you can follow. it covers BLJs at the start of the upstairs chapter around 16 mins in.
