Checking in with Jutta Leerdam!

Jack Paul's Girl also known as Jutta Leerdam is the hottest thing melting the ice that Speed Skating has ever seen and we're not just talking about her super sonic speed.

When you think of sports that ooze adrenaline, speed skating might not be the first thing that comes to mind. But let me introduce you to the queen of the ice: Jutta Leerdam, aka "The Ice Empress," or as I like to call her, "The Skating Supermodel Who Also Happens to Shatter Speed Records."

Fast, Fierce, and a Little Too Fabulous

Jutta Leerdam, the Dutch dynamo, is not just breaking records—she’s breaking the internet! With a growing Instagram following that could rival a Kardashian (okay, maybe not that level but she's on her way), Leerdam has mastered the art of balancing speed with style. Whether she's blowing past opponents or blowing up on social media, this 25-year-old is redefining what it means to be an athlete in 2024.

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “Isn’t speed skating just people in shiny suits going in circles?” Well, yes, but when you add Jutta into the mix, those circles start looking like Formula 1 laps. Picture this: She’s gliding across the ice faster than most of us could even fall on it. The Dutch skater is currently racking up speed in the 1000m and 1500m events like they’re a Sunday stroll, but with every stride, she's laying waste to the competition.

The Numbers Don’t Lie (But They Sure Do Flex)

Let’s talk about her latest exploits on the track. In 2023, she won her second consecutive World Championship title in the 1000m event, clocking in at a blistering 1:12.52. Just think about that for a second: that’s over half a mile in the time it takes most of us to decide on our next Netflix binge. The girl’s on ice but she’s hotter than ever.

And it doesn’t stop there. Leerdam also clinched silver in the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics in the same event. So, basically, she was just one wrong blink away from taking home the gold. Talk about bad luck—but hey, silver's not too shabby when you're skating in a field of superhumans. She’s now gearing up for more world titles, because when you're this fast, winning is more of a habit than a goal.

You may not be glued to speed skating every weekend (let’s be honest, it doesn’t have the primetime spot next to the NFL), but Jutta is here to change that. Speed skating has never looked this cool—or this quick. You know it’s a whole new level when even non-sports fans start asking, "Who’s that girl skating like she's late for a yacht party in the Caribbean?"

Plus, her rivalry with fellow skaters is giving us the drama we never knew we needed. Every time Jutta takes the ice, it's like watching a high-stakes showdown—only with more spandex and less trash talk (though, let’s be real, we’d love to see her throw some shade too).

Beyond the Ice

Leerdam isn’t just dominating speed skating. She's also making waves off the ice. With partnerships, fashion shoots, and a killer sense of humor, Jutta is the kind of athlete you can't help but root for. She's got that perfect mix of talent, charm, and let's be honest, jaw-dropping photos that make you question all your life choices.

In 2024, it’s clear that Jutta isn’t just skating for medals—she’s skating for legacy. If speed skating had a GOAT, she'd be the one nibbling at that title, waiting for her moment to cement herself as the undisputed queen of the rink.

Bow Down to the Ice Queen

Jutta Leerdam is the athlete you didn't know you needed to follow. Fast, fashionable, and ferociously focused, she’s taking over the speed skating world one swoosh at a time. So, grab your winter coat and get ready—because this Dutch sensation is only getting started, and the ice might be her kingdom, but the world is her stage.
