That's perfectly normal if you're a novice runner and you did not do many cardio activities. When I did C25K my 5k time was around 36 minutes. To improve your time you can look into different training programs, which will often consist of speedwork and increasing overall millage and ensuring your form is good. You're not going to get fast overnight but you can gradually improve your running speed.

There is a lot of training programs online that you can try. If you want guidance from an app I found Run With Hal to be pretty decent.
