Does it mean I should have a slightly bigger shoes for the LSD training? Also, is it preferable to have a running shoes with better cushion effect? By the way, I had a hiking last weekend for 42km in 10.5 hr. Of course, I was exhausted but more seriously, the inner side of my thighs were scratched seriously with the edge of my running shorts. I really hurt and I found it bleeds a little bit and it was really painful. I just wonder how can it be improved? By wearing other types of shorts?

Yes, always buy 1/2 a size bigger that what you normally wear. For me, my feet starts to swell at around 15km. After long run, you can soak your feet in some ice cold water (with ice to decrease the swelling). If painful, you can also take a couple of anti-inflamatory pills like Cortal. The better the cushion effect, the better for your knees when doing long runs. You don't have to buy other types of shorts to prevent the scratching. The rubbing of you inner thighs is called chafing. Like other c hings said, try the Bodyglide, just rub it on your inner thighs, the groin areas and one more place ~ the butt crack  . You will scream if you don't rub some in your butt crack when you take a shower later, it really burns!! I also use another product called Sportshield. I don't know if they sell it in HK. I use it to rub on the side of my small and big toes and also the heels too. If you know for sure there will be a blister develope, you can also try another product called moleskin (I've talked about that in the injury forum). On top of all these, you also need two pieces of bandages to put on the nipples to prevent nipple rash. Your nipples rub against your shirt when you run. If longer distance and too much friction, you nipples will bleed (see picture below) especially when it is windy. Some runners simply rub vaseline on the nipples. I found it doesn't work that well when the sweats mixed with the vaseline and it also leaves a dark spot on your shirt and it is hard to wash it off.
Let me know if any more other questions. Hope it helps.
