Good travel shoes for running & walking
I am tired of packing my running shoes in my carry-on bag, but also my walking shoes aren't great for running. I'd like to have a combination of good walking & running & also business casual looking shoes - don't have to be great for running, but better than a regular shoe. Any recommendations?

I've been struggling with similar problem. I want to go two weeks with a rollerboard only, but as a fitness fanatic need a good running shoe and decent dress shoes.
Also as a fitness fanatic who is old and fragile I'd not risk my body to a sub-optimal shoe.
Solution:
1) Good comfortable all around dress/walking shoe, currently find ColeHaan work and wear this.
2) Good running / fitness show, my current solution is carry that as as separate personal item clipped to my backpack
Never had a problem with 2), yet, LOL

Nike Roshe would also be my suggestion. Whilst I would never wear them in a business setting they are great for walking and running. Comfortable, light, stylish and pack down well.
I dont like white soles on my trainers so I always customise through Nike ID, this might be useful if you wanted an all black or blue shoe for business casual.

Mizuno Wave Inspire 11. At home I have the newest version (Wave Inspire 13) to run in but bought a second pair of the older version for traveling. It's still a very solid shoe and I love it for running (and don't mind the wear it gets walking) and cost me ~$55 last year
