Just noticed this small crack in my tire, not sure if I ran something over or just overworking the tires when they were still cold but is this anything to worry about?

Doesn't look very deep but I'd rather be safe than sorry

Not deep, ride cautiously then get on with your life

It's nothing. You ran over something. I've got lots of those. Sometimes the piece is still there and I pull it out before it gets pushed deeper and punctures. Everything from bits of glass to metal slivers.

Looks harmless. As a noob, kodos to you for keeping an eye on your tires.
