Runner is set in project.json

"dependencies": {
    "xunit": "2.1.0-beta2-build2981",
    "xunit.runner.dnx": "2.1.0-beta2-build79"
},

Id like to not use my own build server at this point.

Do you need to install somethin in visual studio to get this to work? Unfortunately as the build dev get is not owned by you you will not be able to run this tests that require a plugin. Both MSTest and nUnit are supported.
