That's a little over 14 minutes per mile. I walk the same speed at a heart rate about 90. Do that every day for a month or three, and your heart rate will drop noticeably.

A healthy young man in his 20's or 30's should be able to run two miles in 12 minutes. That's with moderate training, the time would be faster if he was serious about it.
