Run them down the roof in 3 different directions from the antenna. Let any extra wire dangle over the roof down the wall.

What is this? Are you (KB) going to stick a 32 ft high multiband antenna on your roof? Or were you just considering your options and alternatives to putting it on the ground? I think that antenna will work much better on the ground like mine with the counterpoise wires spread out pushing that big signal of yours up up and away...
