Angry 20* out, should it start?

Looks like its about 20 degrees out in my town, and I have unblended fuel in right now...

Its been a little hectic out, and I havent gotten to store it for the winter (just parked it) Theres been a little snow/salt, but it rained like heck a few days ago. I'm thinking the salts all gone, unless the retards salt the crap out of the occasional fluff ball we get that lands... I've got some time, and I'm wandering If I can start my car and drive it around a bit, then fill it with winterized fuel (accually... mabey filling up and then driving... work it through the system?)

I gotta go to bed in an hour, so in 45 Im leaving IF I get the OK. Would it hurt anything if it DIDNT start? Should it start? Dare I shut it off when fueling?

What would you do in my situation? (which is no time, and little money)
Its the warmest its gonna be for a while right now... sad but true. I DONT PLAN ON DRIVING IT AFTER THIS DURNING THE WINTER!!!

Thanks alot
~Nate
