Default Readiness code problems

Not thinking much, the DTCs got reset this morning in preparation for an emissions test. As should have been expected, it didn't pass due to Readiness not being good across the board. I drove the car over 100 miles on three engine starts hoping to get everything reset, but I still get the following two issues:
Secondary Air Injection Failed or Incomplete
Evaporative Emissions Failed or Incomplete
I thought that these Readiness codes get regenerated after a few miles, but such is not the case with my car.
Does anyone know how many start cycles are required? Do I just have to go drive the car a few more times to get everything back in the green? I'm thinking that I haven't done either enough miles or enough starts - am I right about this?
Any help is appreciated.
