Timeline
In 1962, she married Jelle Keulen (23 November 1931 – 28 July 2011), a farmer with whom she had three children born between 1963 and 1966.
Atje Keulen-Deelstra (31 December 1938 – 22 February 2013) was a Dutch speed skater, who was a four-time World Allround Champion between the age of 32 and 36.
Atje Deelstra was born as the eldest of four siblings in a farmer's family.
As a teenager she did gymnastics, athletics and basketball, but finally chose speed skating.
At the age of 16, she already won a junior title of Friesland and several cash prizes in the Netherlands.
In the 1980s and early 1990s, her daughter Boukje Keulen (born 2 December 1963) also was a successful skater.
Like her mother, Boukje went from short track through long track ("regular") to marathon speed skating.

More successes soon followed when in 1972, she became Dutch, European, and World Allround Champion, a feat she then repeated the following two years (1973 and 1974).
In addition, at the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo, she won one silver and two bronze medals.
