Generaly it's just a case of driving to about 60kph and the braking gently but firmly down to about 15kph, then let off and drive for like 30secs to a min and then repeat, do it anywhere from 8 to 15 times, and then go easy for about 250km after that.

And yeah, as the other guy said, be wary of braking first thing in the morning when the pads are cold, metal rocks when hot, but can scare the **** out of you when cold!
