What are some foods to eat right after a marathon or salsa after midnight? It's cardio, maybe carb drop??

I feel as if a second or third wind activates because you're still on adrenaline or getting that runner's high late at night or after midnight. Most salsa socials start at 10pm, my running group, we run at an indoor track and are only able to afford the midnight slot.

So I'm trying to see if I can get more REM despite the activity. I would come home late about 1 or 2AM, so 30 or 40 minutes after the run or some intense dances. What are foods to eat or snacks to do so I can prolong my sleep? 70% of the time I will wake up way too early, with good energy but I know it'll be just a 3 or 4 hour of sleep and brainfog will ensue rest of the day.

Perhaps rice?? Spaghetti? Anything that can balance I guess the carbs lost. I'm good with protein, I would usually drink milk and take some meat before the rest of the evening goes but any foods that can help?
