It depends on the DC. Some are quite a challenge ... lots of climbing and an aggressive time cutoff. Others less so. Not so much climbing and as much time as you need. None of them are “easy,” though.

My advice? Train until you can do a century in reasonable comfort. At that point you’ll be ready.

Which one are you considering?
it would be a totally flat self-supported solo effort in my area. I’m not waiting for organized events to come back
