Question Clutch problem??

So, I got into my car last night, pushed the clutch to the floor to start the car. Car started and then shifted into reverse. Went to let out on the clutch and pedal stuck to the floor. Tried pumping it and nothing immediately. I could put my foot underneath the pedal and pull it up, but then pedal would immediately go back to the floor.
I then let the car run for about 7-8 minutes and continued to work the clutch a little. After a while, the clutch began to work a little better and better.
Is this a problem or was it cold??
Please HELP!!!

It is likely a problem. Stock clutch & hydraulic's? Sounds like a master problem for sure.
Prolly time for upgrades....

ok update here....got in the car tonight and had no problem. I let the car warm up and had no sticking of the clutch. Drove the car for about 20 minutes or so.
I remember that last winter, I had this problem as well. But only when it was colder outside.
Any help would be much appreciated here to see if i should get this looked at or not.
