A Nike+ Importer for Garmin

My little weekend project this weekend was Fatigue, a tiny bit of rubygem that imports your Nike+ run history into Garmin Connect.

Like many others, I presume, I had a few lovely years on Nike+ but recently switched over to a Garmin Forerunner 405CX. It’s like leveling up your running: the GPS mapping with Garmin Connect is a really compelling way to visualize your runs. I didn’t want to leave my hundreds of logged miles behind, though.

Run fatigue and it’ll import your old runs from Nike+. More installation and usage information can be found on GitHub.

On a technical sidenote: I had a fun time using Readme Driven Development and TomDoc on it. I’ve found I really dig using both of those development mentalities; give ‘em a shot and see if they work for you, too.

Discussion, links, and tweets

I'm a developer at GitHub. Follow me on Twitter; you'll enjoy my tweets. I take care to carefully craft each one. Or at least aim to make you giggle. Or offended. One of those two— I haven't decided which yet.

I also keep an "ask me anything" type of project in a repository on GitHub (naturally!). Feel free to ask me a question.
