Is there anything wrong with maintaining over 5000 RPM for extended periods?

During a recent trip from Allenspark to Glenwood Springs, I maintained about 5000-5500 in 3rd around the Avon/Vail area on I-70 for about 20 mins.

Got it up to 106 in 5th

just wondering if I should have concerns about revving this high for so long. valves seem to get floaty above 5300.

I normally shift around 2400-3000.

When pulling grades, I maintain 3000-4500 in 3rd, such as when driving up Highway 7 to get to Bunce.
