Readership
Starting with our charter issue in January 1995, The Sun Runner Magazine has grown right along with the hi-desert communities, entertaining and informing residents, newcomers, vacationers and visitors with our desert stories, humor, history, art coverage, desert news and calendar of events.
The majority of our readers are mature, literate, cultured, creative adults who have some connection with our desert community, whether they live here, used to live here, have family or friends living here, are visiting, are planning to retire here someday, or just love the desert.  They also are vested in seeing desert businesses succeed, and they shop desert businesses first.
Our readers want to stay in touch with what’s happening in the desert and tell us over and over that they read each issue cover-to-cover (including the ads) and visit our web site regularly. 

Support the magazine of the real California desert - and get your advertisement in a quality cultural publication with a growing number of dedicated readers.
Regional magazine advertising - for less than 1 cent per copy!
