It's the same with me. I can easily read a 400 page book a week (57 pages per day, or a bit more than 1,5 hours reading time), thereby reading 52 books or 20.000+ pages a year, but I often get sidetracked by other hobbies. When studying chess or go, or preparing new pieces to play on the Hammond organ, I read less; sometimes much less.
Last year I set a challenge of 18.250 pages, and almost achieved it. I only fell short by... uh... 5.500 pages or so, reading only around 12.750 pags
Therefore I've lowered my challenge to 80% of the previous one, but to force myself to read less fantasy and more other stuff (maybe a change of reading material will keep me reading more), I've set some additional challenges, such as reading 6 classics by 6 different authors.
