Narrative:

After landing runway 28R sfo and exiting at tango, ATC instructions were to hold short runway 28L at taxiway T. Exited runway 28R and started to clean up aircraft and taxied past the hold line. I was 1/2 way across the line before I noticed and got on the brakes. My aircraft did not enter runway 28L but was 1/2 way past the hold short line. Aircraft on approach to runway 28L was directed by tower to go around. Comments: although some clean-up of aircraft is required even between the runways, such as landing lights off, I was setting the vot when I realized I was over the line. I got distraction for a very brief period, but long enough to lose situational awareness. It had been a very busy 1 hour flight from las, with an IRS fault light on during climb out, a GPWS terrain override light, and a cabin write-up. Also we had tried to eat crew meals and do single segment dispatch for the next leg. I think I was still in the 'multi tasking, do 3 things at once' mode after landing and lost focus on the most important thing. The first officer and I debriefed this and his comments are in line with mine. We both lost situational awareness.

Narrative: AFTER LNDG RWY 28R SFO AND EXITING AT TANGO, ATC INSTRUCTIONS WERE TO HOLD SHORT RWY 28L AT TXWY T. EXITED RWY 28R AND STARTED TO CLEAN UP ACFT AND TAXIED PAST THE HOLD LINE. I WAS 1/2 WAY ACROSS THE LINE BEFORE I NOTICED AND GOT ON THE BRAKES. MY ACFT DID NOT ENTER RWY 28L BUT WAS 1/2 WAY PAST THE HOLD SHORT LINE. ACFT ON APCH TO RWY 28L WAS DIRECTED BY TWR TO GO AROUND. COMMENTS: ALTHOUGH SOME CLEAN-UP OF ACFT IS REQUIRED EVEN BTWN THE RWYS, SUCH AS LNDG LIGHTS OFF, I WAS SETTING THE VOT WHEN I REALIZED I WAS OVER THE LINE. I GOT DISTR FOR A VERY BRIEF PERIOD, BUT LONG ENOUGH TO LOSE SITUATIONAL AWARENESS. IT HAD BEEN A VERY BUSY 1 HR FLT FROM LAS, WITH AN IRS FAULT LIGHT ON DURING CLBOUT, A GPWS TERRAIN OVERRIDE LIGHT, AND A CABIN WRITE-UP. ALSO WE HAD TRIED TO EAT CREW MEALS AND DO SINGLE SEGMENT DISPATCH FOR THE NEXT LEG. I THINK I WAS STILL IN THE 'MULTI TASKING, DO 3 THINGS AT ONCE' MODE AFTER LNDG AND LOST FOCUS ON THE MOST IMPORTANT THING. THE FO AND I DEBRIEFED THIS AND HIS COMMENTS ARE IN LINE WITH MINE. WE BOTH LOST SITUATIONAL AWARENESS.
