you just strafe jump by holding the forward and the left or right keys then moving your mouse side to side to gain speed. Takes some practice.

A couple of threads for you to read.

Also check this from the FAQ.

How do you move so fast and jump so high?
Strafe jumping (also known as bunny hopping) is a key part of the game.  You can build your velocity while you're in the air by strafing sideways and moving forward at the same time, especially if you turn slightly in the direction you're strafing.  Touching the ground will slow you down, so keep jumping!  Ramping off hills and double jumping off of boxes and other things will boost your jump height and distance.  Use them to your advantage.

Also, one point, just randomly hitting the spacebar doesn't help.  You learn good timing after a little practice, so don't get frustrated if you can't go so fast right away.

I never move my mouse from side to side though, that's just weird.  :)
