Narrative:
Picked up taxi clearance during busy time. While executing company call captain asked if we were cleared to runway 1L for takeoff. I responded 'yes,' however, we were actually cleared to taxi to runway 7R. Captain taxied plane and asked for before takeoff checklist while taxiing. I was again pretty busy running checklist and we taxied across runway 7R to runway 1L, without clearance to cross runway 7R. No other aircraft were affected by our actions and ATC did not seem to mind, just gave us clearance to depart runway 1L. Particular attention should have been paid to ATC ground controller's instructions but it was not. Running checklists while taxiing is not particularly a smart thing to do with ATC the other tasks that need to be accomplished. I was particularly tired for this first flight of day with new captain due to sickness (cold). A definite breakdown in CRM occurred, could have been much worse but all was ok.
