Two questions:

1. Would you slowplay that much?
2. Is it possible to fold this hand at any point?

if you think you're ahead, then ship the turn. if you don't think you have a >50% raise, then just call the river.

against a decent reg his range should be very narrow, only 88 (3) A8s (3) A3s (1) and close to no bluffs on this board against a recreational. you could argue all these hands should raise preflop, but it's NL2 and, generally speaking, if we can't find bluffs, then we have to give him value hands.
if you slowplayed thinking "he can have many bluffs and i am super far ahead", that was mistaken.

I understand your thoughts, but isn't my hand too strong to fold/play passively to any agression here? There's no straights, no flushes, AA, KK is highly unlikely...
I didn't slowplay thinking he had a lot of bluffs. He could just have the ace and kept betting. And I believe I'm far ahead of a lot of hands here.

i'm not saying that you shouldn't stack off, just that it isn't a super amazing money printing spot against a decent player. sigh shoving turn is probably correct as you're probably slightly ahead (or he may be just bad), but don't be shocked when you lose.

I would start betting OTF and on this runout just bet bet bet.
