Who came up with the idea of dog sled racing?

Help please? Anything would be appreciated. Links would be nice as well. :]

1. Dogs were traditionally used as working animals in northern climates. But get people together and they tend to compete. I am sure way back when people bragged about their team and tested them against others in races. But formally in History the All Alaska Sweepstakes is usually pointed to as 'the first' dog sled race. http://www.webheads.co.uk/sdcom/press/info/003history.html http://www.kidsturncentral.com/topics/animals/sleddog1.htm
