my first cam break in

I think a lot of the 'crucial break in' stuff is either from a)cheap cam cores that are going to wipe eventually, or b) cheap oil, lack of initial lube (pre-oiler, cam lube etc)

I'm more in line with the way hemimark says his motor got done. I fire it up, make sure I have good pressure, no obvious leaks (I pressure test cooling system before firing the motor) get the motor running decently then drive around for 10-15 minutes.
