As we previously reported, rumor had it that the Course of the Force relay race would be extending their run to a San Francisco start. Coinciding with a Late Night with Jimmy Fallon appearance by Chris Hardwick (@nerdist), the Course of the Force web site made the official announcement that the race will be starting at the famed Skywalker Ranch in Marin on July 9th!
