Give the breath over a period of 1 second.
You do this until you simply are to exhausted and unable to do it any longer.

There is no time limit.

You do this until proper help (rescuers) arrive.

If person starts breathing by his own strength, then you stop, but you monitor until help arrives.

If a person get only a little bit of oxygen all the time from you assisting breathing, then this can be worth gold when rescuers arrives.

This prevents brain damage for one, and is the one main reason to carry on until rescuers arrive.

Heart may have stopped too, so applying heart compression could be an addition to the situation.
