      Hi HaleeB, We're glad that you are enjoying your new headphones. While the WH1000XM5 units don’t have an IPX rating, a simple walk in the park shouldn’t be of concern. For more serious workouts, we suggest our headphones specifically designed for that task. Check out our WF-C500s and the WF-1000XM4s.
