Default AK, good play, or donk move?

First off, this is weak ass tourney, $5 + .50 27 man SNG. (because that's how pathetic my BR is, but back to the hand.)

My thoughts on the hand. Dealt AK in the small blind, Villain one, UTG, has been playing a lot of pots thusfar, so I put him on one of the largest ranges in poker history, same for villain two. BB has shown to be a calling station, and with two limps in front, I decide to bump to 5xBB, I thought pretty standard.

Anyway, post flop I have NFD and NSD, so I bet 400 into the 600 pot. Get reraised by UTG (villain 1) all in, so I figure to be behind, but I think I have the odds to call, so I do. Basically what I'm asking is, is this the right line to take on this hand? If not, what would you do?

Preflop seems standard enough.

Flop I push. No point in pot commiting yourself and saving an ineffectual bet for a later street.
