4:26 in 9th grade (circa 1992). Just went up from there as I my upper body filled out and I went back to swimming. I couldn't get under 7:00 now if you put a gun to my head.

but I'm still in decent shape at 29, or at least in decent runner shape

just being 29 means you're in decent shape.

While I was in basic training (Army) I ran a 5:15. I probably couldn't run a 15:00 mile now.

Back when I was in high school and playing soccer you didn't get on the varsity roster unless you ran a sub 6 minute mile. My personal best was 5:45 my junior year and shaved it down to 5:15 for my senior year. Back then I could run all day and not get tired but we were doing probably 8+ miles of running during spring practice. Couldn't do that today if my life depended on it.
