That sounds awfully tough to me. WHY does this run need to be in 
conduit? Are you going under a road?  FWIW, hard line lives quite well 
laying on the ground as long as you're not driving over it. My neighbor 
K6XX and I both have a lot of 7/8-in laying on the ground, and he has 
some bigger stuff.

If your reason is to go under a road, can you shorten the section of the 
run that's in conduit by only using conduit to get under the road?
