So how long before the engine overheats without a fan?

I was swapping out some vac hoses, and unplugged the fan while doing the APC solenoid ones- you know, I like to keep my fingers. After I was done, the car would get pretty hot under the hood... never in the "red" zone, but pretty close to it. Never quite got there, even in stop 'n go metro traffic. I was like what the heck, I just flushed out the system! The next day I remembered that I might have not plugged the fan back in... and surely enough, there were the two separate plug ends.
I just thing that the cooling system did a pretty good job of not blowing up despite not having a fan for three days. Comments?
