did you build the motor? If not then I dont think it has to be broken in, unless you got a new clutch or built the motor

My clutchmasters Stage 3 came with directions to drive the clutch easy and use it for typical around town, stop and go traffic for 500 miles. I drove it easy for about 700 miles before I started high rpm shifts or launching the car. That's probably a pretty typical range (maybe a little long) to give the flywheel and clutch time to bed in. Just don't beat the hell out of it or let it really slip for the first few weeks and you should be fine.
