No. That is normal. I was about 14 1/2.
Getting the first period anytime before the age of 16 is considered biologically normal. If a girl reaches 16 and still hasn't had a period, then its advisable to see a doctor.
Also, a girl's natural body type has an effect on when puberty/periods start. Shorter, 'chubbier' girls tend to start menstruating sooner than taller, thinner girls.

No, I wouldn't worry about yet, I started when I was 14 also. There's lots of girls who get there periods at age 16 or 17, too. In a few years, if nothing has happened, then you should start to worry.

It is not weird at all, especially if the girl is very active in sports...when i was in high school, my friend didn't get hers until she was 17.

There's no set time to get your period. i got mine when i was 10 1/2 but if you don't get yours by age 17, ask your doc.
