“as far as” or “as long as”?


“as far as” or “as long as”?



Which should be filled in the blank, “as far as” or “as long as”?



I played a racquetball game against my cousin Ed last week. It was one of the most surprising and tiring games I’ve ever had. When Ed first phoned and suggested we play, I laughed quietly, figuring on an easy victory. After all, Ed’s idea of exercise has always been nothing more effort-making than lifting a fork to his mouth. I can remember, Ed’s been the least physically fit member in the family.

A.As far as B.As long as



In my opinion, the answer should be “as far as”, but the given answer is “as long as”. Is it wrong?
