Is this okay or do I need to pace down?

These were my heart rate zones during 8/10 difficulty scale 10 km running session. Is it advisable to stay in the extreme zones for that long of a duration provided I feel no dizziness or extreme shortness of breath and feel “comfortable” enough just like another gym strength session, but my heart rate tells another story altogether.

Zone 1- 02:14 minutes <135BРM

Zone 2- 06.13 minutes (136-148BPM)

Zone 3- 21:15 minutes (149-160ВPM)

Zone 4 -21:32 minutes (161-173BPM)

Zone 5 - 30:45 minutes (174+BPM).

Highest heart rate during run- 194 BPM
Age -29M, I have started running 3 months back and been a smoker prior to this.
