I'm surprised no one has mentioned this, probably because he doesn't seem to have a 5k PR, but Andres Arroyo (who ran for Florida collegiately) ran 49.09 in the FAT flat, open 400m dash. He also ran 1:47 in the 800, 4:04 in the 1600, and I believe from his 8:51 3200m PR in high you could extrapolate a sub-15 5k.

I raced him in XC in 2010. He was just chilling and put 15 seconds on me in the last mile. Ran 16:00
