bulk-export run data from Garmin Connect
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
## disconnect
# ./disconnect.rb -u yourusername
#
# This is a command-line utility for the bulk-downloading of run data from
# the connect.garmin.com web application, which has lackluster export
# capabilities.
#
# Using this code is a matter of your own relationship with Garmin Connect
# and their TOS. I can't imagine this being very destructive to their service,
# and it's just filling in a hole in their existing service.
#
# It's built against Garmin Connect as of July 22, 2011. It's a scraper:
# thus if Garmin changes, this **will break**.
#
# This script requires all of the utilities on the line below: install them
# with rubygems
