Fresh water is constantly being replenished by rain so wouldn't 'run out' like other resources. However there is only a limited amount of fresh water available at any particular time. If we used all of that we would have to wait for it to rain again.

When will fresh water run out?

This is a somewhat misleading question. Water is a renewable resource, so the 3% of our water that is fresh water will remain fresh water. If we consume the water, it is recycled and returned to the system. Salt Water also becomes fresh water through the natural rain and weather cycles of our planet. The only issue we would have is if we started to pollute and destroy existing water systems used for drinking and irrigating our fields. This would still be considered fresh water, but unusable water.
