Narrative:

Flight was holding short of the intersection of runway 32 and 35 at slc. It was very early in the morning. The visibility was relatively poor with blowing snow. The windshield was partially obscured with frost on the side of the window panes and the crew had not flow together in over 10 months. We were feeling rushed because of a delay at the post office and when cleared for takeoff, we departed on runway 32 instead of 35 as cleared. There was no conflict in traffic.
