Default 3rd in chips but shortstacked, how to play?

I find this situation coming up quite a bit in $109 and $215 SNGs. You're among the chip leaders but because the blinds are so large you are also technically shortstacked (less than 10XBB). I understand that the amount of your raise can be less than 3XBB because everyone is shortstacked, but my guess is it will still be a close decision between pushing and making a normal raise. So, how do you adjust your strategy since you you're in a decent position versus others? Do you narrow the range of hands you play but push those hands to the max?
