I'd pull fiber and Cat5, so if you mess it up, you can replace it.

How long is the run? Is this a 3mm indoor fiber or something tougher
deaigned for outdoor use? I would be nervous about damaging an indoor fiber
trying to pull another past it.

You can probably use a vacuum tube to suck some jetline in, tie a plastic 
baggie to it.  
If it is short enough it will work well.

I have a 1-1/4 innerduct with one of my upstream carriers small 3mm fiber in it 
and I would like to pull a single cat5 through as well to reach a customer what 
tips do you guys have to avoid damaging the existing cable ?

I don't have a mule tape installed so I will have to run a fish tape through 
and pull the line or a tape back through. I have several sweeps so I was 
planning to use some Klein canned foam lube into the duct ...
