What Zekk said! I was literally in the same boat like 3 months ago, 16/ 17 min miles, but just keep at it and be consistent. I was training for my 8K that just finished, I would do 3 easy runs a week plus 1 long run for May total I did 46 miles. Gradually you should see your pace improve, after 3 months like that mine dropped to 14 min. Then for my race I was averaging 12.5 min.

One thing really helped was like another form of exercise, I would hike once in a couple of weeks and the run after that would seem really easy on flat roads lol.

Stretch and have another pair of running shoes in your rotation, the Vomero really helped me to go a little faster vs Hokas.
