Integrating iPod/Nike workout data into Fitbit

Recently, I received (and subsequently lost) a Fitbit Force for Christmas. The unfortunate discrepancies in the hardware aside, I enjoyed the unit and the wealth of data it collected about my daily activities. Fitbit was also gracious enough to allow developer access to all that collected information through a well-documented API.

While at the gym, I use a Polaris WearLink+ heart rate monitor along with an iPod Nano to gauge my cardiovascular workouts. The heart rate monitor chest strap detects my heart rate and transmits the information to the iPod Nano where it is recorded during my workout. This information is then sent to the Nike website when you sync the iPod. Even though the Nike website is sufficient enough to get a handle on the results of my workout, collating the data from both the Nike and Fitbit sites would be tedious at best.
