I cleverly did this many years ago.  I attached some clear plastic
tubing to the outlet on the outside of the house (used a couple of
adapters to size the plastic pipe down to the tubing size).

Then I ran the other end of the tube to a flowerbed along the fence so
that we wouldn't have to water there anymore.  Big mistake.  The AC
makes a LOT of water, and it ended up drowning the plants.

However, this would work better if you did in fact attach it to a soaker
hose to spread out the runoff.

But in any case, attaching a hose/tube to the outlet can easily be done
to re-route the water to another place.
