The La Jolla Rough Water swim standard master’s 5-year age groups

Newport Beach Pier to Pier – Standard 5-year age groups

Tiburon Mile SF Bay  10-year age groups

Alcatraz Challenge 10-year age groups 

If the race has been designated a “National Championship” by United States Masters Swimming  (USMS) it will have 5-year age groups.   If it is just sanctioned by USMS, it’s up to local director/committee. 

And one more calendar because if you’re an open water competitor you need multiple calendars because no single calendar has everything.
