How to find the P-Value of this data?

For a biology project, we had to come up with a research topic, research, experiment, blah blah blah. For our null hypothesis in our result paper, we have to have a P-Value to support our data. I know what a P-Value does, telling if the data has any significant differences or not.

For my project, I tested how different music genres affect people's running ability. So I have 5 participants, 7 different genres, and 35 data entries in Excel. What test would I run to get the P-Value for all of these compared together? I'm trying to run an ANOVA test, however I'm getting a ridiculous P-Value (5.13045071172133E-11). Thanks in advance!

Your data collection accounts for too many variables for such a small sample size.
