Stunning Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam is leaving the 2026 Winter Games with a silver medal in the 500 meters, a gold in her signature event — the 1,000 meters — and a legion of new fans.
But before she took off for home, she donned her tight orange athleisure top and black Fila pants for an emotional farewell to the Olympic Village, flaunting her incredible medal-winning physique and heart-achingly endearing personality.
The Wednesday, February 18 TikTok share begins with Leerdam in front of the Village’s famous Olympic rings. “She doesn’t know it yet but this video will into a transition,” is written over the selfie footage, of the clearly newly-arrived athlete, smiling. Then the video cuts to a new shot of the speed skater, now with two medals around her neck.
“I thought the first video is one I will show my kids one,” she captioned the sweet montage. “Olympic gold, silver and an Olympic record…. Pinch me.”
In her lead-up TikTok video, which she posted the day prior, Leerdam admits to delaying her departure because of a cold.

“I cannot believe it, guys,” she says in the Tuesday, February 17 video. “My Olympics is so complete. I got both colors and on my favorite distance I won gold it’s just a dream. Now I’m going to the Olympic Village to get all my stuff, which means it’s coming to an end. But I can’t believe this. This is so crazy. This is all I wanted and I did it so…mind-blowing.”
