Assuming I understand the problem correctly, you want to check for
runs of at least length five where both Score and Test_desc assume
particular values. You don't care where they are or what other data
are associated, you just want to know if at least one such run exists
in your data frame.

Here's a function that does that:


checkruns <- function(testdata) {

        test1 <- ifelse(testdata$Score > 0 & testdata$Type_Desc == 1 &
!is.na(testdata$Type_Desc), 1, 0)
        test0 <- ifelse(testdata$Score > 0 & testdata$Type_Desc == 0 &
!is.na(testdata$Type_Desc), 1, 0)

        test1.rle <- rle(test1)
        test0.rle <- rle(test0)

        if(any(test1.rle$lengths >= 5 & test1.rle$values == 1))
cat("Type_high\n")
        if(any(test0.rle$lengths >= 5 & test0.rle$values == 1))
cat("Type_low\n")

        invisible()
}
