Losing pace...in the 800. Can I interrupt the trend?

I've been thinking. With respect to my 800m campaign, I have been losing about 1.5 seconds every couple of years or so: 

Here's what losing pace looks like from my vantage point:

2008/2009: 2:04

2008/2009: 2:02.5

2010/2011: 2:05.5

2012/2013: 2:07

2014/2015: 2:08.5

2016/2017: 2:10

2018/2019: 2:11.5 (600 conversion)

2020/2021: 2:13 (time trial)

2022/2023: 2:14.5 (approx.)

2024/2025: 2:16?? Can I interrupt the trend? It would help if I trained for the 800, which I haven't done in the past five years or so!
