I was well hydrated prior to the race and I noticed Tom didn't stop to get water at midpoint so I didn't bother either.

Warm down:

Minor stretches, drank water, ate a banana and half a bagel.

Nothing, almost well rested.

I'll update this once I get the official results, which they did not have available at the race.

Event comments:

For a YMCA event, they did a very good job. The awards ceremony was inside the they were quick to get the awards to to everyone. NIce trophies and shirts to boot. Great weather and day to run.
