There are sewage ejector systems. And Macerating pump systems. The ejector is a pump with a holding tank. The Macerating pump pumps directly into a drain line. If you run an 80 foot pipe, the slope will be 20 inches at 1/4 inch a foot. That is quite a slope (nearly 2 feet). Are you sure your existing drain pipes are buried deep enough? Also you would have to use two inch pipe and possibly install a new clean-out or two for that pipe. Check with your local inspector to be sure. It seems the pump would be the best route to follow in your situation. Pump the waste into the closest drain pipe.
