I run 3-5 times a week for about 40 minutes. Should my cardiofitness improve within a month, or is this a really slow process?

I lost a significant amount of weight from Oct 22’ (96kg -> 74kg). Only ran occasionally but played sports every weekend + walking to class. Just started taking running seriously the past month (vo2 46.7 -> 51) and currently in base building phase for my first marathon next year. Current weekly run volume is around 40km’s and gradually increasing.
5 runs/week
