Put gas in and then truck wouldn’t start

At a loss right now!
I was driving to an appointment over 2 hours away today, truck was driving great, no issues.

About 8 minute drive away from my appointment I decided to put gas in the truck
Went to go start it and it wouldn’t turn over
Sounds like it wants to but just can’t
Pushed its away from the pumps and someone helped me and boosted it, still wouldn’t start even after leaving it for 10 minutes or so
Battery gauge was only around half but still wouldn’t turn over

This happened to anyone else on here?
Could be a starter or relay issue? Maybe alternator?

Had to leave it at the gas station because no parts places were open
It was also very cold today
-29c with the wind chill

If the motor will not turn over the first thing I would check is the oil level. If the oil level and condition of the oil is good I would try and turn the motor over by hand with a breaker bar and a socket. If the motor spins freely like it should I would test the battery and then verify I have a solid connection at the battery and the starter.

You could also try jumping across the terminals at the starter to see if it will spin the motor.

Thanks for the reply, I’ll try those today when I go back up to the truck
