Where do your legs hurt Tyler? Calves or knees or ankles. I would say this is all part of your body growing and being influenced by hormones as well. They used to be called "growing pains" and thats exactly what they are. Your bones and muscles are extending and growing at different rates,and as they pull on each other they cause slight pain. There is a condition called Osgood Schlatters syndrome,which describes this and often applies especially to Teenagers knees. The treatment is rest, ibuprofen if it is really painful,and application of ice. In really troublesome cases steroids are given for a short while.
You will gradually lose the pains as your growing phase slows up,but if you are really in pain then ask your Mother/Father to let you see a doctor.
