Unhappy Accidently left the parking brake on.

Blazing hot here...in the 90s, get into the Porsche to go home after work, so bright (and hot) sunny, did not realize the parking brake was on until after about a mile, and then the car starts bucking at 3K.

Came back checked them in the garage, had to re-adjust.

Anything else should be done?

You will be fine.

I have "heard of a friend" doing that once (or twice) with no ill effects other than wear....

Hopefully that's your case too

At least it should be corrosion free by now. As per the manual albeit more than one click and 400 meters..
