Welcome and great job getting started. That run remains the toughest run I’ve ever done, even my half marathon felt better! I ran it too fast, or as my wife likes to say, I just had to be a man! Slowing down helps a lot in that it makes it easier, and develops your body in the right way for endurance running. Your fitness will rise a lot faster than you’d think too.

The link in the above reply has lots of advice for you... any other questions and we are here.

You can do this, enjoy your journey.
