Web Hosting Provider Globat.com Sponsors Denver Couple's Summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro


LOS ANGELES, Aug. 29, 2006 -- Los Angeles-based Globat.com(R), the world leader in Performance Web Hosting(R), today announced its sponsorship of an expedition to Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa, by a young couple from Denver, Colorado. Jonathan Kraft and Carrie Roll decided to make the journey after hearing raves from a friend who had climbed the mountain in 2004.

The couple recalls, "Her experience was so inspiring that she decided to return to Kilimanjaro in 2006, this time as a trip organizer. She asked us if we wanted to join her on her 2006 Kilimanjaro expedition. So, we thought, 'What the heck! Let's do it!'"

After months of training, Jonathan and Carrie left Denver on June 8th and started the trip of a lifetime that took them through Washington, D.C., New York City, New Jersey and Amsterdam before arriving in Tanzania on June 23rd. After some final preparations, Jonathan and Carrie reached the top of the 19,340-foot mountain, the tallest point in Africa, on July 1st, and celebrated Globat.com's sponsorship of the trek by planting the company's flag at the top. Jonathan also took the opportunity to climb a different type of mountain by proposing to Carrie, who happily accepted.

The couple is now back home in Denver, Colorado and are sorting through the numerous pictures and videos they took during their journey, with their favorites already posted on DefyingGravity.com.

"Talk about defying gravity! Jonathan and Carrie have accomplished something that most people will never do. Globat.com is very proud to have been a part of this monumental event," says Ben R. Neumann, President and CEO of Globat.com.
