Prior to the event, Stepan Kiselev and Iskander Yadgarov had promoted the idea of a duel between the two on social media, with the organizers of the marathon casting it as a professional versus amateur contest. Yadgarov, a programmer at Yandex, said he would take on professional Russian marathon runners, with national champion Kiselev serving as his role model. Competitions were held in warm and sunny weather (about 20 degrees Celsius at the finish). A total of 81 marathon runners (49 men and 32 women) from 34 regions of Russia were at the start line. The reigning champion, Alexei Reunkov, did not defend his title due to an injured Achilles tendon.

Claudia Afanasyeva defended her women's 50 km walk title in 3:57.08, which exceeded the world record of 3:59.15 by Liu Hong, but was not ratified due to Russia's international ban due to doping and the absence of foreign judges.
In February 2019, three of the four Russian walking champions (Shirobokov, Sharypov, Afanasyeva) received warnings from RUSADA for forbidden cooperation with the trainer Viktor Chegin, who was suspended for life in 2016 for numerous doping violations of his athletes. Another champion, Elena Lashmanova, trained for a long time under the guidance of Chegin, and from 2014 to 2016 she was suspended from the competition due to a positive doping test.
