[endurance] conditioning on pavement

I'd like to hear from some of you that do some of your conditioning on the
pavement. Unfortunately, I have no choice to do some of my weekly
conditioning on pavement - I hate that but right now that's my only
alternative in some places. What we actually trot on the pavement probably
only amounts to about 5 - 8 miles a week but I hate every stride of it. Not
only does it wear the living daylights out of metal shoes, I just cringe
knowing the amount of concussion his legs must be taking. (I am getting my
equithotics in this Friday - so part of that problem will soon be
lessened.)

Is this amount excessive? Does anyone else do this much or more on a
regular basis?
