With exhaustion........
a) Walk
b) Swim...any stroke you prefer......(In lengths of an average swimming baths)
c) Run..(at a slow jogging pace)
There would be no time limit whatsoever........
a) I reckon I could do 24 hours. Not distance I know - bus I guess as much as Fas1975 did.a) Walk

b) I started training for fitness earlier this year and 80 lengths was easy enough. That's 2km. I reckon I could swim 10k without much problem.
c) My knees start to hurt a bit these days. A 10k run is about my limit.
Walk:I do a fair bit of walking so I can actually go quite far without realising it. I think the longest was about 18 or 19 miles with a mate along the Norfolk Coastal Path from Hunstanton to Wells. We got the bus back!
Swim: When I was 14 I did a charity swim and managed to do 30 lenghts of a 50 metre pool. So about 1.5km. I had to be helped out of the swimming pool afterwards though.
Run: I've run a few half marathons and I did a couple of 15 milers when helping friends prepare for the London Marathon.Never fancied a full marathon though.

A: I've done 26 miles in a working day when I was a porter so I reckon even now I could do at least double before sleep was required.
B: Probably 5 miles but it would take me a while.
C: I reckon I could force myself through a marathon distance. It wouldn't be pretty and I'd certainly throw up but I'm sure I could do it.

A - I'm being lazy and not joining the Mrs on a 20 mile walk in a couple of weeks, but 20-30 miles should be easily doable
B - Not done much swimming in ages, but providing there's no current you can float and only put minimal energy in, so proper swimming at any speed probably a dozen lengths, slow speed several hours worth I'd have thought
C - Longest I've done is 10k and I was knackered at that, at the moment I reckon I could do half marathon distance but need to walk some of it, so just running probably 12-15km.

Walk - No Idea. Not really a big fan of walking. i did 10 mile hike when I was at school and I know I didn't enjoy it then!
Swim - Always been a strong swimmer. Done 6 miles in a swimathon once and I thinnk I have 10 miles in me. I can do three miles with next to no training.
Run - Not a runner. I've done a half marathon and may do a marathon one day, but no further.

a) - could probably walk all day (around 9hrs) if needed. I reckon I'd walk around 30 miles. I wouldn't collapse from exhaustion, at the moment my knees, groin or ankles would force me to stop I think .
b) - I reckon I'd be utterly ruined after 50 lengths of a 25m. I can only really do front crawl so my shoulders and arms tend to cramp or spasm, and thats me done.
c) - With slow pacing (~ 10min/miles) and some fuel stops I reckon I could probably do a marathon and a half (call it a nice round 40 miles). Again, I reckon an injury somewhere from the waist down would probably call time before I was exhausted.
