Olympics 10 part documentary from the 70s?

Does anyone remember a 10 part Olympic documentary that aired on PBS back in the 70's? I believe it was called Olympiad (Not Tokyo Olympiad that was different)

I'd love to find this, the narrator had the greatest voice!

I just found a write up of it in an old sports illustrated from April of 1976! But this is not listed on IMDB anywhere as far as I can find:

Here's part of the article and a link!

Please please someone help me find this it was awesome!

In May, thanks to a $200,000 grant from E.F. Hutton & Company, Inc., PBS will show the first one-hour program in a 10-part series called The Olympiad. Written, produced and directed by Bud Greenspan, an independent maker of TV documentaries who always has to struggle to get air time for his shows, The Olympiad is a haunting look at people in search of excellence. The reviews of this series are going to be so good that they will embarrass network executives who have consistently rejected Greenspan's programs.
