Default .50sx break in ?

I have a new o.s 50sx and just finished my new profile. The problem is I will not be able to fly for a cople months, and I want to get a couple flights in beforehand. So my question is will it harm the engine if it is stored before it is fully broken in. I will follow the break in procedure, but I have been told that it may quite a bit of running to seat the ring. I will probably be able to run five 6oz tanks through the engine on the ground before flight, and then maybe 3 flights. If I run all the fuel out and use after run oil will the engine be ok to store for a couple of months?
