A finish time means almost nothing on its own.
Divisions run different loads, age groups run in five-year bands, and venues differ in track layout, floor surface and Roxzone length. Which makes a raw number close to meaningless out of context. Your splits, and your placing inside your own bracket, are where the useful information is.

The thirty-second test
Take your eight kilometre splits and find the gap between fastest and slowest. Under 30 seconds means you paced it well. Over 60 means you went out too hard, which is the most common finding in a first race, and it means your next race plan is pacing rather than fitness.
