One of the worst thing one could do to break in the engine is to "baby" it. Doing this prevents the ring from seating into the cylinders properly. I read that it's the 1st 20 miles that is the most critical in seating the rings. It's best to run it hard (not WOT but around 7/10th) for the 1st 20 minute or so (also use engine braking as much as possible). Then change the oil and oil filter, check eveything out then you're done!
