Good running shoes for a beginner and general running advice?

CanofCornI

I'm going to start running regularly and I was wondering what kind of shoes I should get.
I'm a female with very high arches. I'm starting with 2 miles a day 6 days a week. I notice that I get tired pretty easily and I try to run through it. I'll run about a quarter of a mile, walk a quarter, run a quarter, etc. Is this okay at first or should I make my running longer? Shorter? Any more experienced runners with advice out there? Thanks :D

If further information would help just tell me and I will reply with an edit.

Answer
Your running is fine, continue to pace yourself and walk and stop and rest as you feel the need. If you are older than 35, then stay at your current schedule for about six months before pressing further and or faster.
