at the clinic (sorry to bring it up again) there were a lot of people that lead with the heel (myself included) but the have a quick enough recovery so that the mid/forefoot strikes. the one thing that ken was saying about that is that it tends to cause the person doing it to make contact with the ground a couple of inches in front of the ideal position and is therefore slightly less efficient.
