Default Play for 2nd or play to win?

So this spot came up recently and I really wasn't sure what to do. Say its a standard 9-handed sng, 3 people left, blinds are 200/400, stacks are:
You (2000 chips)
SB (400 chips)
BB (11000 chips)

You're on the button and pick up AT. Shove or fold? I folded, basically giving up on trying to win and just hoping to finish in 2nd. Seems like taking down the blinds or even doubling up doesn't really do that much for me, while getting called and going out in 3rd would be annoying. Thoughts?
