Run the sled up a hill would not necessarily accelerate the sled, but rather increase its potential energy. To increase acceleration, other options could be to increase the surface area of the sled's runners to reduce friction, providing additional training to the dogs to increase their strength and speed, or reducing the weight of the sled and supplies being carried. Another possibility could be to adjust the angle of the sled's runners to optimize their contact with the snow or ice, which could improve traction and therefore acceleration.
