The duration and distance from the routing origin to a place in the response, and a second leg from that place to the destination, if requested. Note: Adding routingSummaries in the field mask without also including either the routingParameters.origin parameter or the searchAlongRouteParameters.polyline.encodedPolyline parameter in the request causes an error.
When you calculate travel duration and distance from a set origin, legs contains a single leg containing the duration and distance from the origin to the destination. When you do a search along route, legs contains two legs: one from the origin to place, and one from the place to the destination.
