It's her gold medal-winning look from the 2018 Olympics!

If you thought you had Olympic fever, take a look at this! Former Canadian Olympian Tessa Virtue shared an amazing TikTok of her watching the Games on the couch while decked out in her costume and skates.

In the video, she puts her skates up on the coffee table, munches on popcorn and gets a beer while staying focused on the TV. The text over the TikTok couldn't be more accurate: "Tell me you miss the Olympics without telling me you miss the Olympics."

Virtue is in the costume she wore at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang when she and figure skating partner Scott Moir won gold in ice dance. She also has her Team Canada jacket and gloves beside her on the couch.

At the Games in Tokyo happening now, Canada's Olympians just keep on winning medals and making history. One of the athletes even became the country's most decorated Olympian of all time.

Canadian athletes get paid for getting on the podium in the Olympics but in other countries around the world, athletes make a lot more money for winning a medal. Some of our Olympians actually have other jobs they go back to when they're not competing at the Games.
