he didn't exactly run to Russia... he was stuck in a transit zone for over a month with no where to go until Putin decided he could stay.
And what do you think was going on for that month? Putin work in the KGB for 16 years, he's something of an expert at this. Don't you think the Russians were questioning and vetting him during that time? They probably know how many times Snowden has taken a shit in his life. And the Russians had to have put some pressure on Snowden to give up some good info using a leverage sending him back to the US if he didn't cough something up. That's Intelligence 101 and the Russians wouldn't be doing their job if they weren't trying to squeeze whatever they could out of Snowden. Certainly if the situation were reversed we'd expect our guys to squeeze whatever they could from a Russian with laptops full of secrets.
