The John Beargrease Sled Dog Marathon, an annual competition that sends teams from the outskirts of Duluth to Grand Portage, has been postponed until March 2, race officials said Thursday. There isn’t enough ice and snow along the 300-mile route — or any of the alternate routes — to safely host the event.

Officials announced on Thursday the John Beargrease Sled Dog Marathon in northern Minnesota has been moved to a later date due to "unsafe trail conditions."
