Strode up and down (5)

I believe the answer is:

paced

(Other definitions for paced that I've seen before include "Walked about in a preoccupied or frustrated way" , "Walked at a steady speed" , "set the tempo" , "Measured (a distance) in steps" , "Took steps" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
