I'm never quite sure what to do in these situations, While a large raise out of the blinds normally is extreme strength I've seen this move very often with mid pocket pairs. I folded in the hand but didn't feel too good about it and wondered what other people's actions would be.

Yep, fold. You can push if you read AK and can keep chips if you win the race.
