Legkov led a sweep of the podium for Russia in the 50K. Russia started the day tied with Norway for the most gold medals with 11 and with a 29-27 lead over the United States in total medals.
With only three events on the final day of competition - cross-country, four-man bobsled and the men's hockey gold medal game - the Russians didn't waste any time in sealing the deal.
Norway figured to challenge the Russians in cross-country, but Martin Johnsrud Sundby finished fourth while Russians Maxim Vylegzhanin and Ilia Chernousov took silver and bronze.
The three skiers had a wild celebration at the finish line.
