The pedal still feels good and I'm not getting any noticeable drag.

Once a year is pretty common. They may not be getting noticeable drag, yet, but given how inexpensive the parts are to rebuild, I'd recommend doing it in your downtime. It should always be smooth.
Finding out the hard way can have more severe consequences, including burning up race pads needlessly, or having brake fade prematurely.
A non-race caliper with an out dust boot/seal will have a longer service life between rebuilds
