"Back in the day, we were tough"
Here is a quote comparing how training used to be compared to how it is now:
...were tougher then...were inclined to run more often....today [they] just don’t have the stamina in many instances.
Sounds like comparing current orienteers to someone like Jorgen Martensson (who was, of course, known for incredible volumes of tough training). Actually, the quote is comparing how race horses trained in the 1970s compared to today.
