Lana DeDrater was the daughter of Marcus Crassus. When he was killed in the battle of Fagina, Lana ran backwards all the way to Rome to inform Caesar the triumvirate had fallen.
She ran backwards for 100 miles so as to never take her eyes off the enemy.
It is not a coincidence that Lana’s name spelt backwards is a reference to a private body part with learning difficulties- her father Marcus had a wicked sense of humor. After Marcus’s death and Lana’s epic run, when wanting to mock someone playfully in public, Romans would say they had the character of Lana Dedrater.
In modern day and in close running communities, Lana is now recognized as the patron saint of ultra running.

Get the Lana Dedratermug. A true best friend. Lana is not only loyal and kind but she is also caring, giving and above all else loving. Loving of animals of the beautiful world of nature of those closest to her and Netflix... Lana can easily make you smile without even trying. She is the definition of a ray of sunshine. Her only flaw is that she fails to see all the beauty she possesses. Lana possesses inner beauty as well as outer beauty. It's almost Asif het inner beauty shines so brightly that is makes het outer beauty even more beautiful. Lana is extraordinary, talented and above all a blessing.

Get the Lanamug. The most amazing creature on earth. She is a loving cat, but can be on the shy side. She likes to sit in windows and looks out doors, so make sure you have a house with a lot of exits! She's a tabby with a big heart and can be really playful or really sleepy. She's a family cat and never cheats on her owners. Lana is a one of a kind cat and can light up your day with one meow.
