The main difference is how you land, not where you land (Assuming you are not overstriding). In any running stride, what matters is where your foot is in relation to the body when the majority of your weight is on it. | |

Long bounding steps. When barefoot, it's easier on your feet if you're landing with your foot under you, or only slightly forward. It's a smaller stride-length but done for often. | |
