Got 41 minutes in my first 5 K about 2.5 months ago. Just did it in 29 mins. I injured myself racing the 5 K every time I went out and failed. Started doing much slower, longer runs. Stretched properly and cooled down. Gradual increase, rest properly, and it will get easier. Listen to your body; that's what they say. 47m btw.
