I don't like it.

My running coach advocates running sort of on the ball of your foot, but it's really more kind of shuffling on the ball of your foot, but definitely not striking with the heel first. You kind of shuffle to the front of your foot, but put your heel down after that.
When I run on the track for speed (or in my case, "speed"), my calves always hurt the next day because I run only on the balls of my feet. I don't think I could run 4 miles only on the balls of my feet. Ouch.
