Another way of managing brake temps is asymmetric braking. Standard SOP on the B777.
Also, looking at the plate there are some parallel taxiways and lots of opportunities for intersection take offs.
gcap, were you cleared to taxi to the full length runway link and was your route next to a parallel? Does your a/c require the full length or could you have asked for/accepted an intersection take of?
