Default foot placement on the pedal


ok so i seem to put my pedal on a weird part of my foot when riding and
hoping. My shoe is like this on the pedal - forgive the rather nasty
picture courtesy of the gimp.

I think most riders have their foot much more at the front of their
shoe. What's the advantage and disadvantage of this? And should I try
and change? Or should i just be different? I haven't noticed anyone
riding with their pedal nearly as far back as me, and i'd be interested
to get some medical and general opionions on this, especially since i've
injured my foot pretty badly 4 weeks ago and it's still not healed.
