She is fascinating not only with her athleticism but also with her beauty: Who is Jutta Leerdam?

Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam is 25 years old. She is 1.81 tall and weighs 73 kilos. She has an extraordinary physique. A significant part of her life is spent in speed skating training and in gyms where she works intensively. 

Jutta Leerdam broke the Dutch national record in the 1000 meters when she was 21 years old. In the same season, they broke the world record in the team sprint together with Letitia de Jong and Femke Kok. 

Its name has a very nice story. Jutta's father, Ruud Leerdam, was a former surfer. During her years of surfing, there was a successful female surfer: Jutta Muller. Father Leerdam was so impressed by Jutta Muller that she promised herself, "If one day I have a blonde daughter, her name will be Jutta," and she kept her promise in the last days of 1998. 

Jutta Monica Leerdam (born 30 December 1998) is a Dutch speed skater specializing in the sprint events. Leerdam became the junior world champion at the 2017 World Junior Championships in Helsinki, Finland. The following year, at the 2018 Championships in Salt Lake City, United States, she finished second behind compatriot Joy Beune.

She had great admiration for her grandmother, Rietje Jutta. When Jutta was 11 years old, she was interested in ice hockey and her grandmother told her that she was so fast that she could also be interested in speed skating. Because she felt a great responsibility for Jutta's career, she collected all the newspaper clippings about her and never missed any of her competitions. She used to go to the stadium and scan the tracks beforehand, almost like Jutta's manager. 

Her Instagram account is one of the subjects of almost every interview. She currently has 4.3 million followers and is considered the face of speed skating in the Netherlands. She increases the number of interactions many times over, especially with the Reels videos she shares. In addition to her sporty profile on Instagram, she also inspires with the combinations she shares.

He is with Koan Verweij, who is also a speed skater. I think this is a feature that increases sporting success because they are always talking and discussing their own business. They live together and train together.
