More details to this question:
I signed a non compete for the business I work for and it says that it lasts for 5 years and I was wondering if a non compete is valid since it is 5 years and also the specifics of the contract if someone could call me and I can talk with them. I am NOT looking to do the same thing but I currently work in sales selling television time and am interested in doing sales for Internet websites etc related sales work in the same city. The sales I do now is sales all over the state so I don't know if that means I cannot work with those companies for 5 years? We have worked with 700 companies in the last year.

This is a question that should have been asked BEFORE you signed the agreement. Now, the only way to properly address this is for you to spend money hiring a lawyer to review the agreement and provide an opinion about what the exposures are. Starting point is that it is what you agreed to unless or until someone sues to to enforce or challenge it.
