Felicity (Fliss) Abram (born 16 August 1986 in Brisbane, Queensland) is an Australian professional triathlete.

In 2003, at her very first ITU triathlon debut, Felicity Abram won the gold medal at the World Junior Championships, and in 2005, at the age of 18, she was admitted to the National Elite Team. After a year overshadowed by injuries, in 2008 she was the Number 1 in the ITU ranking, still the Australian triathlon federation did not appoint her as a member of the Olympic Team for Beijing. In the eight years from 2003 to 2010, Felicity Abram took part in 36 ITU competitions and achieved 20 top ten positions, among which 10 medals (3 gold medals).

Felicity's twin brother Geoff is a professional Rugby player. She was an Australian Institute of Sport scholarship holder.[1]
