There's nothing wrong about that.
Just make sure that you recalibrate your battery once a month. Otherwise you are fine. That's what I do all the time anyways. I had this MBP for over three months now. I have only 10 cycles and 99 sometimes 100% health. How did I get 10 cycles? 6 times, I let it run on battery. The other four times occured when I traveled 😛

It should be fine - designed to run like that.
But remember to use the battery until it's flat every now-and-then just to keep it in good shape. 🙂

Charge it till its full. Unplug it. Run it till it shuts itself off due to lack of battery. Wait 5 hours or more. Plug it in again.
Pretty simple really, but Apple doesn't really advertise the fact that we should calibrate the battery once a month.
