Racer Profiles: Gritty Determination...Shawn Runyon's Desert Dream Takes Flight at the Mint 400

At 58 years old, Shawn Runyon isn't your typical off-road racer. This TrophyLite competitor from Hilliard, Ohio, isn't fueled by youthful exuberance, but by a lifelong passion for the sport that finally roared into his life in the unforgiving desert. Unlike many racers whose stories begin with family outings on dirt bikes, Runyon's journey started with dog-eared off-road magazines, their pages filled with tales of Baja adventures. These magazines planted a seed in young Shawn, and a yearning for the thrill of desert racing that wouldn't be silenced.
