A non integrable distribution which is totally geodesic

Is there a non integrable $2$ dimensional distribution $D$ of a $3$ dimensional Riemannian manifold such that the distribution is totally geodesic in the following sence:

Every geodesic whose tangent vector if its intitial point is tangent to the distribution then the tangent vector at all its points is tangent to $D$, too.
