If such a thing exist which would you recommend? Or is it most MTB type shoe would work?

Secondly, what the purpose of overshoe when you can get a full length lycra trousers

Thx
If such a thing existed, I'd be worried about the cleat contacting the floor, and would be a bad compromise for both uses. Too flexible for cycling, too rigid for running.

Overshoes ("booties" or shoe covers) are for keeping your feet warm in cold weather. The heavier ones are made of neoprene and allow you to ride in sub-freezing temps.
