There are various ways to get what you want.
One way is to start xnest on your Freerunner, displaying on your PC's
screen, and then run SHR inside this xnest server.
`xnest' is an X server (like Xglamo, etc..) which draws onto another
X server's display rather than on some graphics card. So it's "one
specific application" (as seen from your PC's X server), but it can in
turn display all the applications that you run on your FR.
Note that it's a different Xserver than the one connected to the FR's
own LCD screen, so you won't see a mirror image.
Another way is to use VNC.
You may also want to check out xmove or xpra.
