In that sentence you can use both “for” or “as” I’m not really sure about why it both works but it does(sorry :/ ). “For” is used to tell where a person, place or something is going. Example: I’ve waited at the coffee shop for hours! “as” can be used to compare or to tell that something happens . Example: Go as fast as you can, or you are as fast as a cheetah!
