i eat a banana before, and drink some gatorade. but i usually only run 5
 
Carry a water bottle with you, and drink ~3 sips of water every mile or so. Also, carry one package of gu and pop it at the 5 mile mark.

Stretch lots after the run is over. Also, don't forget to properly warm-up and cool down before and after by walking at least 1/4 mile (5 minutes).

Try doing shorter runs (2 or 3 max) during the week at slightly faster pace for maintenance. Then, once per week do your "long run" day.
